Ramsayite was first reported in Norway from nepheline syenite pegmatites intersecting a foyaite dike at Bratthagen, Lågendalen, near Larvik (Oftedal & Sæbö 1963). Subsequently it was found in miarolitic cavities in elpidite-bearing ekerite from near Gjerdingen, Nordmarka, north of Oslo (Sæbö 1966).
